1 2016 Dangerous Goods Symposium PROBLEMS IN SEARCH OF SOLUTIONS; SOLUTIONS IN SEARCH OF PROBLEMS SEPTEMBER 8, 2016 CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 2016 JERRY W. COX, ESQ., ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
2 PART I REAL Hazardous Materials Problems
3 REAL Problems Deadly train derailments + Oil-by-rail (Lac Mégantic, Lynchburg) + Deadly chemicals (Graniteville, SC) Deadly pipeline leaks, fires and explosions + San Bruno, CA, gas pipeline + Crude oil leaks Industrial accidents + West, Texas + Tianjin, China
4 Lac Mégantic, Quebec (2013)
5 Lac Mégantic Statistics 4,701-foot long train w/one engineer 72 DOT-111s w/30,000 gals. of crude oil EACH Runaway train; derailed downtown 47 killed 36 buildings destroyed Insufficient insurance, so railroad bankrupt Victims compensation fund, $450 million (4,000 claimants)
6 Lessons of Lac Mégantic Causes: (1) defective locomotive; (2) poor maintenance; (3) driver error; (4) flawed operating procedures; (5) weak regulatory oversight; & (6) lack of safety redundancy In other words, parked on a main line on a hill w/o setting the brakes properly No tank car design could survive such a crash Main lesson: You can t cure stupid!
7 Lynchburg, VA (2014)
8 Lynchburg Statistics Train carrying crude oil going 24 mph in a 25 mph Derailment & explosion, but just happened to fall into the river instead of downtown Broken rail discovered day before; repair scheduled 3 weeks later Took CSX more than 2 hours to arrive & provide useful information to emergency responders Civil penalty: $361,000
9 Knee-Jerk Regulatory Reactions Emergency orders. New sampling & testing requirement Eventual demise of the DOT-111 tank car
10 San Bruno, CA (2013)
11 San Bruno Statistics Natural gas pipeline subject to federal regulations but supposedly enforced by state regulators DOT OIG: PHMSA/OPS State Pipeline Safety ManagementProgram is essentially useless; safety regulations were NOT enforced 8 dead; 58 others horribly burned; 38 homes destroyed Almost 4,000 violations of state & federal laws State penalties: $2.2 billion Convicted of criminal violations (8-9-16)
12 West, TX, Accident? (2013)
13 West, TX, Explosion Statistics 15 killed (incl. 12 first responders); 200 injured 500 homes destroyed 93-foot crater Ammonium nitrate & anhydrous ammonia PHMSA inspected & fined the company in 2012 $1 million insurance coverage, but TX required $0 Arson? Loading/unloading? Explosives transported there.
14 Tianjin, China (2015)
15 Tianjin Statistics 173 dead 304 buildings damaged 12,428 cars destroyed $1,100,000,000 economic losses
16 KILLER HAZMAT GASOLINE & DIESEL FUEL CHLORINE PROPYLENE/PROPANE FIREWORKS LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GAS SULFURIC/HYDROCHLORIC ACID ANHYDROUS AMMONIA CARBON DIOXIDE (LIQUEFIED) SODIUM HYDROXIDE
17 PART II Solutions in Search of Problems
18 PHONY PROBLEMS Sampling & testing for crude oil by truck UN certification of non-bulk industrial packaging Fitness determinations for special permits & approvals Penny-ante, gotcha enforcement actions
19 Fitness Determinations Screened out exactly zero unfit applicants Never intended to be a requirement Adopted without rulemaking or industry input
20 Enforcement Procedures Agency-by-agency procedures & terminology + Notice of Probable Violation + Notice of Proposed Civil Penalty + FAA Rules of Practice + Federal Rules of Civil Procedure & Federal Rules of Evidence Administrative Procedure Act & Generic Statutes Administrative Law Judge (hearing examiner) procedures Appeals
21 Enforcement Abuses Abusive, unannounced inspections Exit briefing reports as confessions Other, new standard forms as confessions Refusal to explain allegations in exit reports Agency attorneys rubber-stamp investigators reports - allege violations of non-existent regulations involving non-existent products by investigators who were never present False enforcement action reports Industry needs to plan ahead!
22 The Big Issue: Strict Liability vs. Negligence Opposing arguments Statutory Language + Civil penalties + Criminal penalties Legislative History FAA Position
